Garlic & Chili Restaurant

A few months back I heard about a good Chinese restaurant in Burnaby. Lunch plans were made. We anticipated deliciousness. To our surprise, a new restaurant had replaced it. The sign read Garlic & Chili. Jacky the Macanese Chilehead tells me its Szechuan. This has to be a good thing.

Hi Karl, I’ve been following your blog for a while and love what you have to post. Am I safe in assuming that you’re also a left-handed foodie living / working in the same area? (Or am I complete douche now?) Anyways, thank you for posting about Garlic & Chili, I look forward to reading more of your blog!

Hi Jessica, thanks for your kind message. Figuring out I’m a leftie is somewhat eerie! Not douchie in the slightest, just freakily perceptive! I noticed you went next door to Bentei…have you tried G&C? The Szechuan Beef Noodle Soup is a must. The chef even once prepared a special lunch for six, Szechuan-style. I managed to talk Sherman into visiting. It’s my go-to lunch spot and a big favorite of my co-workers.

Loved your post on Shoryumen. Looks like a very unique venue, definitely worth a visit.

Hey Jessica, I went there for lunch today (it’s usually once or twice a week). Had the Szechuan Beef Noodle Soup. I order it very spicy so it’s absolutely loaded with flavour! Cannot get enough. Might have to do a re-post just for the soup!

Heard good things about the bakery from co-workers. Definitely worth a visit.

I’m trying to get together a bunch of folks for Beef 7 Ways at Song Huong next Monday. Sherman’s in, waiting to hear from Kim. Are you interested?
